Andy vs. Danmaku Barrage
April 24, 2015
Well, after last week’s long-and-challenging Feel Bad Friday — this week I thought we’d take a slightly different tack. A walk down memory lane, if you will, where I play through the *first level* ever created by a player in the Electric Shocktopus: Danmaku Barrage by Chemi. Created in June 2013. Whaaaat? Yes. Long, long ago.
So thank you to Chemi for sharing that level way back when, and thanks to NealCruco for helping convert the level to bring it into the modern era.
This old, old level shows off a couple mechanics that *used* to be in the game, but aren’t anymore. Things like charging yourself negatively (now you can only charge your Shocktopus positively). Or floating conductors – that take on a voltage depending on their surroundings. Neat to see little reminders like that about how much games change as you develop them.
